Re: Is the diet life long? Help

[Guest guest]

If you have an open mind and want to read about curing the underlying

conditions that led to your candida overgrowth (which will permanently

cure the overgrowth), read " the key to health and rejuvenation " by

andreas moritz.

soon after reading about the " candida diet " I began having doubts

about it, something told me there had to be a better way. and there

is. s is probably not the only person really approaching this

issue in a truly holistic way, but he puts everything together unlike

anyone I have read. It can hurt to at least read the book.

Are you using a prebiotic such as inulin with the probiotics? If not, why

not?

How do you take hydrogen IV? Sounds interesting as several of my clients

swear by Megahydrin, which is an oral product from Dr. Flanagan.

I am new to this.. But I have major candida problems.. I have had

this for about 8 years but can't find a doctor that understands what

I am going through.. I have tried to diet but my cravings are soo

bad, and head aches, and if I don't eat the carbs feel like I am

going to faint. I have all the classic symptoms plus some. Need

someone to talk to. Don't know what to do..

Prebiotic, I am not quite sure but yes to the probiotics. But my

problems is not taking them regularly. I am now putting remimders on

my outlook to help me.

As far as the hydrogen or vitamin IVs, it was like an other IV you

would get at the hospital but instead it was filled with a hydrogen

mixture. I did it so often that I probably looked like a drug user

with all these holes in the crook of my arm. I wouldn't recommend the

hydrogen IV if you are starting to fill ill. I did it and it

accelrated the flu.

There are lot of food manufactures that are starting to get into the

Carb control diets. Just look around your grocery stores. But read

the labels to see if they contain yeast. Check the carb and sugar

contents

My diet contained of protein. No pork though. I tried to stick with

everything organic. No simple carbohydrates: potatoes, pasta, white

rice, anything white is a good rule. No food with sugar including

fruits. I ate plenty of veggies but No vegetables with yeast;

mushrooms... No dairy;

I substituted

For sugar: Splenda or Stevia

Rice: brown rice

bread: Pepperidge farm makes a bread that is less than 2% yeast in it.

salad dressing: lime/lemon juice with sea salt or I loved smashed up

avocados as a dressing.

I snacked on seasoned nut mixed; pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds,

almonds, cashers, and pistachios. I would buy wheat tortillas cut

them up and bake them. Those where my chips. Almond butter on the

organic yeast free waffels was always yummy.

Those are just some of the things I did.

I understand everything. After my three months my yeast count was at

the right level and my toxins disappeared so I thought it really

worked. After month I had little relapse and I went to the doctor

right away. He told me that I could be my husband. I have read often

that your sex partner can pass it back and forth to you. So I asked

my husband to slow down on his cokes. He has now completely stop

drinking cokes and he hates sweets so maybe this will help me.

I am loving this group thing. I really thought I was the only one

that was going through this.

Before I found my doctor in March, I was getting really depressed and

felt gross all the time. It didn't help being married. I wouldn't

want to get near my husband.

Like I said earlier that I went through different doctors. They put

me on all kinds of medicine. When the second doctor told me that she

is putting me on the last thing she could think of, I realized that

there is something more to it. I thought my problem is extreme. So I

knew I had to fine somebody out of the box. I went to an

acupuncturist. The experience was cool but after three sessions and

tons of herbal vitamins, I spent nearly $500. I could no longer

afford to see her.

My last doctor pissed me off. She lectured me about going to the

acupuncturist. I told her the traditional methods have not worked.

She also told me that I would need to see a Chronic Disease

Specialist. At the end of the session I was yelling and laughing at

her at the same time.

I know two doctors in the Dallas area that treat candida. I don't

know where you live? But if in Dallas I can suggest them
